Podcasts about Complexity

Abeba Birhane believes that human behavior is ambiguous and indeterminable. Human social structures are complex systems of freedom and necessity. Machine learning systems that attempt to predict human behavior by reducing it to algorithms are currently in vogue. Abeba explains why this approach to predicting and engaging with behavior is not only scientifically erroneous but […]

Man's chief end is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, as the catechism goes. But what does that even mean? What does it look like to glorify God? Perhaps we're making Jesus famous or Christ beautiful. Or we're conveying honor to the Creator Being. Or we're reminding ourselves of the vastness of God and security we find within.Mentioned in the Episode: Voxology Podcast with Mike Erre The Divine Dance by Richard Rohr Stephen on the Worship Review Podcast James Webb photos Join our Patreon community at patreon.com/ravelpod for as little as $3/mo!

THE THESIS: The Party has the perfect prop. Half of voters know Joe Biden is senile, unwell and a lifelong con artist. The other half of voters know he's senile, choose to believe he's honest and defend him because they have trapped themselves in a political tower of babble.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Jeremiah 9:6 6 You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me,” declares the LORD. Bible Verses about Deceit THE NEWS & COMMENT: The Mockingbird Media and Mitch McConnell act in unison when they pretend Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi are mentally fit and not hopelessly and obviously corrupt. They both embody the poison combination of arrogance and ignorance,  [AUDIO] - Pelosi: "When I was a little girl, I was told at the beach if I dug a hole deep enough we would reach China. So we've always felt a connection there." [AUDIO] - Biden says he wants to buy an electric Corvette, but can't because he's not allowed to drive while he's Vice President [AUDIO] - Biden Remarks on Inflation Reduction Act Drift off Into Delusion One of Saul Alinsky's techniques, so often used by the Clinton Cartel, is to accuse the other side of that of which you are guilty. It is obvious that the Biden Cartel is purely corrupt from the Big Guy on down,  EXCLUSIVE: Report Shows Biden Admin Run By Former Registered Foreign Agents VP Joe Biden met with two Chinese energy execs in the West Wing, who are linked to his son Hunter From the Author, Josh Boswell: “Perhaps the most surprising thing about this was Hunter's lawyer's response when I asked him for comment”: So steeped in lies is the City of D.C., that there is a senior level, taxpayer provided job for people to lie to the media on behalf of the white house. This particular spokesliar has her job for two reasons: she identifies as black (for she is clearly not a biologist or anthropologist) and she says she is same-sex attracted. This woman's ignorance is on display every time she opens a notebook and reads from it pretending to answer questions and her arrogance shines as she parades it about condescending to the people who pay her.  [AUDIO] -  The white house spokes-liar says people dropping out of the job market are teens [AUDIO] - Then, the spokes-liar pretended gas prices are down . . . she gets Doocy-iedd  Complexity is a scoundrel's haven. Mitch McConnell gave the Democrats the CHIP Act--which forces taxpayers to give hundreds of billions of dollars to companies like Hewlett Packard--and that was the linchpin the Democrats used to pass the spending orgy hilariously called in Inflation Reduction Act.  [AUDIO] -  Meanwhile, we have the lying, professional grifter, Mitch McConnell pretending he couldn't have stopped the latest spending orgy by the people who run Joe Biden . . .  Powerline Blog notes:  Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell sat for an interview with Bret Baier on Special Report last night. Senator McConnell himself has posted the video below on YouTube. In it he explains the Schumer/Manchin Bummer Beyond Belief light bill as beyond his power to affect. It is a reconciliation package that requires only the Democratic majority for adoption. “Reconciliation is something done by one party only,” McConnell explained. “There's nothing we could have done to prevent the Democrats from doing a bill that only they will vote for — so it's not a question of being played here,” he added. Translation: Republicans are innocent bystanders. However, Senator McConnell vowed to stop any reconciliation bill before he and 16 other Republican Senators joined the Democrats to pass the CHIPS spenderama. The CHIPS spenderama was the predicate to the Schumer/Manchin deal. It was to be held hostage to prevent any reconciliation bill. See Senator McConnell's tweet below. So corrupt is D.C., so arrogant are the Republicans at the top, they are simply using the passage of the Bill, which Mitch allowed by passing the CHIP Act he wanted so he could hand out our money, that the GOP is already rabble-rousing for votes based upon its passage. Republicans say Democrats will ‘pay the price' in midterms for passing massive spending bill As all of this has been going on, the purely corrupt FBI has been digging into conceal carry permit records in at least one State. But, because of the arrogance of the Deep State, disgraced liar Chris Wray refuses to answer the people's questions about why he is doing that.  [AUDIO] - The FBI wants to review the sensitive personal info of Missouri concealed-carry permit holders, and yet their director can't answer simple questions as to why they need to review this info.  @SenHawleyPress We know why. Arrogance comes from the top . . . [AUDIO] - An ATF agent showed up at a citizen's home to question him about a shotgun he was not "permitted" to have. The citizen called 911 and told them someone was at his door trying to take his guns. Police end up ARRESTING the ATF agent. Arrogance is at the very top of the political tower of Babble as the UN publishes workbooks to guide illegal immigrants up to the Southern Border of our Country [AUDIO] - The UN made a booklet mapping out exactly how to get through MeXi o and cross the US border! Wtf? The UN needs to GO! Revised National Statement of the United States of America on the; Adoption of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration  -  December 17, 2021  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Spiritual abuse often generates a deep sense of loneliness and isolation. This can be compounded by the reality that those who are suffering often encounter great misunderstanding of the issue both inside and outside the Church.

In this special Insatiable podcast episode, I celebrate a major milestone: 30 years as a cancer survivor.  I'll share how what resolved my acne, depression, IBS, infertility, and out of control eating was learning how to redefine health beyond losing weight and learning to trust in my body feeling satisfied, not sacrificing and suffering.  And how this new orientation led to transformational health results I didn't even know were possible. Including sustainable weight loss, a Truce with Food, and a relationship of awe and gratitude for my body.    Ali shares: Why knowing the difference between Authorities and Experts is essential for transformational results. Especially if like me, as the first generation of childhood cancer survivors, there's very little research to go on for your own body challenges. How I got out of the insanity of “I know sugar feeds on cancer” yet would binge on it during “scanxiety” season. If you struggle with health issues that are exacerbated by eating things you know you shouldn't, this mindset shift helps. How mainstream goal setting, predicated on “You are not your story! Day 1 starts today”” sabotages us exactly like "Diet starts tomorrow" and a different approach to goal setting that resolves our root-causes and works in our real lives.  The root cause of my bingeing and weight loss obsession that cancer deepened  but wasn't any more destructive than diets. And a simple practice for you to get to the root of your destructive eating habits. What I now believe about how weight is or isn't related to health.   And then I answer listener questions, which include What role does diet play in your life as a survivor?  Have you put your cancer in the rear view mirror, or does it still occupy your thoughts? Residual worries and things you have to be concerned about that others don't? How can friends be supportive?    Mentioned in this episode: SMART Goals: How they Sabotage Eating and Exercise Goals and What Works for Deeper Coaching Impact on August 23 at 12 pm.  In this workshop for Coaches, Therapists, and Other Health Professionals, we will cover: The emerging research on why eating and exercise are in a unique change category and how this changes the client goals and coaching for deep impact. The protective role of bad habits and why this understanding is essential for sustainable change (i.e. compliance), including the idea that a client has to “Tony Robbins” their way out of their bad food and health habits. Why more tools that stay on the surface aren't the answer and how an evidence-based, root-cause resolution of a client's resistance to change creates elegant solutions so they aren't failing at one more thing “Complexity fitness” and its role in empowering clients by ending the sabotaging, all or-nothing mindset.   I'll also be discussing my ICF-certified, trauma informed Truce Coaches Certification that opens up again in September, in which we definitely do not use SMART goals and instead, get to the root of client's food and body issues so you or your client's don't need anymore tools. www.alishapiro.com/smartgoals    Blog posts: alishapiro.com/valuesgap alishapiro.com/body-discomfort-first-step/

‘The modern world is becoming very, very complicated, and one must therefore make one's own life extraordinarily simple. That simplicity demands a great deal of intelligence.' This week's episode on Simplicity has three sections. The first extract (2:57) is from Krishnamurti's eighth talk in Bombay 1962, titled ‘Simplicity and virtue in a complex world'. The second extract (25:07) is from the seventh talk in Saanen 1965, titled, ‘Simplicity comes with the understanding of sorrow'. The final extract in this episode (56:17) is from the first talk in San Francisco 1984, titled ‘Complexity must be approached with simplicity' Season three of the Krishnamurti podcast continues with the format of extracts carefully chosen from the philosopher's talks. Each weekly episode focuses on a theme explored by Krishnamurti and the aim is to represent his different approaches to these universal topics. This is a podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust, based at Brockwood Park in Hampshire, UK. Brockwood is also home to Brockwood Park School, an international boarding school offering a personalised holistic education for around 70 students. It is deeply inspired by Krishnamurti's teaching, which encourages academic excellence, self-understanding, creativity and integrity. Please visit brockwood.org.uk for more information.

Grief shows up in many forms and Emily is wondering what it can teach us. Whether we are mourning the death of a loved one, or experiencing a void through loss of a job or item, or feeling the lost potential future of how we thought life would go, grief is here. And perhaps it can teach us to love more. Or maybe it helps to know God has grieved too. In the end, we're here to say "thank you, grief". Because while it is our attachments that create our greatest sufferings, that is also where we find our greatest loves.Join our Patreon community at patreon.com/ravelpod for as little as $3/mo!

Some people excitedly talk about the “end of localhost development” when developer machines move to the cloud. Presumably this is better because our environments, infrastructure and projects are so complex that they need this additional layer of abstraction just to keep teams productive. Is this our inevitable future? Or is this trying to solve the wrong problem? We talk about what we think this movement is about and how it relates to us. Elixir projects can potentially be much simpler with fewer external dependencies making this move to the cloud less compelling. Join us as we contemplate how Elixir and Phoenix might fare in a world with no “localhost development”.

The gun debate is one of America's most polarized issues. Large mass shootings always bring this debate to the forefront, eliciting strong emotions from both sides of the aisle. Many believe the answer is stricter gun laws, while others see this as government overreach and believe average citizens can better protect themselves by keeping and bearing arms. I argue that neither of these choices are likely to be effective, and put forward a third option that better aligns to how information and decision making work in systems that survive. Support the show

Macroeconomic concerns are weighing on technology markets, but there are conflicting signals in the data from the latest outlook study. Research analyst Malav Parekh returns to pick through the complexities in inflation concerns and interest rates with host Eric Hanselman. Respondents say that they can't hire fast enough, but are also concerned about inflation trends. They're worrying about borrowing and repayment, too. Will dreary impressions turn into self-fulfilling prophecies?

What do we do when life gets complex? What do we do when life feels overwhelming? Sometimes this happens because we are trying to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. Jesus teaches us that He is the way, the truth, and the life. Listen in today as we discover how to gain clarity and regain our trust again. thebridgebluffton.com

About the author Everett Harper is the CEO and Co-Founder of Truss, a human-centered software development company, named as an Inc 5000 fastest-growing private company for 2020 and 2021. He is a rare combination of a Black entrepreneur, Silicon Valley pedigree, National Champion, and a proven record for solving complex problems with social impact. He had the foresight to build a company that's been remote-first since 2011, salary-transparent since 2017, anticipating the importance of hybrid work and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) by a decade. Before Truss, Everett was at Linden Lab, maker of Second Life, a pioneering virtual world, and Bain and Company management consultants. Though both his parents had pioneering careers as software programmers for IBM, Everett is the first in his family to attend college, as an A.B. Duke Scholar at Duke University. While majoring in biomedical and electrical engineering at Duke, he also won a NCAA National Championship in soccer. He was inducted into the North Carolina Soccer Hall of Fame in 2019. Everett graduated with an MBA and a M.Ed in Learning, Design and Technology from Stanford University. In his career, he's leveraged his education and experience to help millions of others, from helping fix healthcare.gov at Truss, fighting poverty worldwide as a Board Member of CARE, and helping low- and moderate-income homebuyers while at Self-Help, a community development finance institution. Everett grew up a small town kid in New York's Hudson Valley. He currently lives in Oakland, CA, making limoncello when life hands him lemons. Source: https://www.everettharper.com/about   About the book Lead organizations, solve problems, and sustain growth with effective practices for complex, uncertain, and unpredictable environments. Renowned CEO and strategist Everett Harper explores practical techniques for making pivotal decisions through uncertainty in Move to the Edge, Declare it Center—a pragmatic playbook for leaders solving complex problems in high-pressure environments. You'll discover a collection of practices, processes, and infrastructure that can be applied to your own circumstances and scaled throughout your organization. The author's framework—which is perfectly suited to an increasingly volatile, uncertain, and unpredictable business environment—offers effective ways to make decisions without complete information. It demonstrates how to sustain a team through uncertain and stressful periods while managing personal anxiety. The book includes case studies from World Central Kitchen, policymakers responding to Covid-19, and California wildfire fighters, adaptable playbooks on salary transparency, remote work, and diversity and inclusion, and personal stories from the author that describe strategies for maintaining high performance and avoiding burnout. An indispensable guide to modern business leadership, Move the the Edge, Declare it Center is a one-of-a-kind discussion of effective, modern strategies to deal with complex problems in the face of uncertain outcomes. Source: https://www.everettharper.com/about-the-book Big idea #1 – Move to the EdgeThe whole idea of move to the edge, declare it centre was inspired by a quote about Andy Warhol; “Move to the edge, declare it centre and let the world reorganise itself around you”.  Everett and his team did just this, even if it took the world a decade to catch on with things like being a remote first workplace, which they started doing way back in 2011.   This whole approach is one of responding to complexity, and using interior and exterior practices to do that. Move to the edge specifically, is the practices, processes, and infrastructure to address complex problems. Its methodology involves being at the edge of your knowledge and the unknown, in that liminal space between the two. It's where you need to get curious; you're looking for insights, running experiments, and thinking about how you can find out new things and see different perspectives. The more expert or experienced you are, the more you need to do this. It is equivalent to things like Tiger Woods changing his swing several times during his very successful career, or Michael Jordan making a late-career jump shot change. These things force a new perspective, no matter how far into your career you are. Big idea #2 – Declare it CentreDeclare it centre is about building operations to systemise, scale and share innovations so that they can deliver the desired outcome. It's this that enables the individuals, teams, companies, and organisations to sustain the work with less individual effort. A great example of this in the book is painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Every single year on exactly the same day, they start painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Everything is done exactly the same as the year before, to the day, and once it's done, they are ready to do it again the following year in the same way and on the exact same day. Systemising and scaling ways of working so that you can repeat them allows you to sustain the work.   Another great example Everett talks about is the Montgomery bus boycott of 1955 to 1956 that lasted 382 days. In advance, Rosa Parks and her compatriots were training in the Highlander centre and the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee for years to get ready to sustain themselves. They had to create plans and infrastructure and build relationships to make sure it was sustainable; to move forward they had to build a whole system around it.   Systemic change requires sustained effort. Big idea #3 – Being Human TogetherBeing humans together is something very specific to the way that Truss choose to work. At Truss, they have a weekly 30-minute meeting just for a chat, to learn about each other and encourage conversation on different topics.   Move to the edge, declare it centre creates better human and diverse conversations. It forces you to hear new views and have access to experiences you haven't always aligned with or lived. Everett talks about if you grew up on the edge, because of where you were born, your race, your culture, your gender, or your sexual identity, you're in a great position to say “this thing was not designed for people like me”.  Whereas if you grew up in the centre, you have the opportunity to move to the edge and let the centre be someone else, and you can listen to their perspectives and then design products / services accordingly. This requires the use of internal practices to overcome those voices or discomfort that you will naturally experience as a result of moving to the edge and having some things disrupted in your mind around what is true and what is right. Everett has a great quote in the book - The new normal is complex, train for it.

Our week of "Greatest Hits" episodes from the vault continues with this conversation from the episode discussing systematic failures of NAS scoring due to inconsistencies in how different pathologists interpret slides. This conversation explores the reasons for different histopathologists differing consistently in how they interpret liver slides.One of the primary drivers of reassessing the role of semi-quantitative histopathology in assessing developmental drugs was the paper "Complexity of ballooned hepatocyte feature recognition: Defining a training atlas for artificial intelligence-based imaging in NAFLD," e-published in January 2022 in the Journal of Hepatology. This paper demonstrated strong systematic flaws in the reading of ballooned hepatocytes, which is one of the pivotal factors in assessing drug efficacy. This paper showed that low levels of inter-reader consistency led to an array of interpretive challenges. In this episode, last co-author Quentin Anstee led the Surfers, including co-author Stephen Harrison, through a review of the paper and a discussion of how to resolve this issue. This conversation starts with Stephen Harrison noting that the single largest problem facing drugs in development is the inconsistency in efficacy reads (and particularly placebo response rates) at the back end of clinical trials. From here, the group explores how histopathology training leads to variability in the interpretation of slides and inconsistent assessments of drug efficacy.

Thu 7/14, 2022, 7:30pm Blaise Agüera y Arcas and Melanie Mitchell with Lili Cheng How Close Are We to AI? BUY THE BOOKS   Ubi SuntBy Blaise Agüera y Arcas   Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking HumansBy Melanie Mitchell     Artificial Intelligence (AI), a term first coined at a Dartmouth workshop in 1956, has seen several boom and bust cycles over the last 66 years. Is the current boom different? The most exciting advance in the field since 2017 has been the development of “Large Language Models,” giant neural networks trained on massive databases of text on the web. Still highly experimental, Large Language Models haven't yet been deployed at scale in any consumer product — smart/voice assistants like Alexa, Siri, Cortana, or the Google Assistant are still based on earlier, more scripted approaches. Large Language Models do far better at routine tasks involving language processing than their predecessors. Although not always reliable, they can give a strong impression of really understanding us and holding up their end of an open-ended dialog. Unlike previous forms of AI, which could only perform specific jobs involving rote perception, classification, or judgment, Large Language Models seem to be capable of a lot more — including possibly passing the Turing Test, named after computing pioneer Alan Turing's thought experiment that posits when an AI in a chat can't be distinguished reliably from a human, it will have achieved general intelligence. But can Large Language Models really understand anything, or are they just mimicking the superficial “form” of language? What can we say about our progress toward creating real intelligence in a machine? What do “intelligence” and “understanding” even mean? Blaise Agüera y Arcas, a Fellow at Google Research, and Melanie Mitchell, the Davis Professor of Complexity at the Santa Fe Institute, take on these thorny questions in a wide-ranging presentation and discussion. The discussion will be moderated by Lili Cheng, Corporate Vice President of the Microsoft AI and Research division. Blaise Agüera y Arcas is a VP and Fellow at Google Research, where he leads an organization working on basic research and new products in Artificial Intelligence. His team focuses on the intersection of machine learning and devices, developing AI that augments humanity while preserving privacy. One of the team's technical contributions is Federated Learning, an approach to training neural networks in a distributed setting that avoids sending user data off-device. Blaise also founded Google's Artists and Machine Intelligence program and has been an active participant in cross-disciplinary dialogs about AI and ethics, fairness and bias, policy, and risk. He has given TED talks on Sead­ragon and Pho­to­synth (2007, 2012), Bing Maps (2010), and machine creativity (2016). In 2008, he was awarded MIT's TR35 prize. Melanie Mitchell is the Davis Professor at the Santa Fe Institute. Her current research focuses on conceptual abstraction, analogy-making, and visual recognition in artificial intelligence systems.  Melanie is the author or editor of six books and numerous scholarly papers in the fields of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and complex systems. Her book Complexity: A Guided Tour won the 2010 Phi Beta Kappa Science Book Award and was named by Amazon.com as one of the ten best science books of 2009. Her latest book is Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans. Lili Cheng is a Corporate Vice President of the Microsoft AI and Research division, responsible for the AI developer platform which includes Cognitive Services and Bot Framework. Prior to Microsoft, Lili worked in Apple Computer's Advanced Technology Group on the user interface research team where she focused on QuickTime Conferencing and QuickTime VR. Lili is also a registered architect, having worked in Tokyo and Los Angeles for Nihon Sekkei and Skidmore Owings and Merrill on commercial urban design and large-scale building projects. She has also taught at New York University and Harvard University.

In this episode, we are mixing things up a bit. Instead of the usual suspects of SBA Award winners, former federal contract officers, program managers and fast rising small businesses we decided to feature someone in the (D&I) space... diversity and inclusion. If you have heard this is sort of the new buzz word floating around for what was formerly considered minority contracting. In today's episode I bring on a company who is leading the regulatory compliance side of minority, women, disadvantaged and small business compliance. Today we talk with Brian Sanvidge, the Principal and Leader of Regulatory Compliance and Investigations of Anchin's Litigation, Forensic and Valuation Services Group. In Brian's previous career he worked as the Inspector General for the New York State Labor Department for ten years. In that capacity, he oversaw the civil and criminal investigations conducted by the Department of Labor. We take a deep dive into the complexity of being compliant on a project that has federal, state and local dollars. Why? Because each entity has various SMB goals that they want to achieve. Federal government wants HUBZone, VOSB, WOSB, 8a, the State wants DBE/MBE, the municipal government may want CSBE, CBE, local regulations. Also, you will hear how Brian and his team helped one state completely turn around their DBE program. You will also learn how the commercial industry is placing an emphasis on D&I compliance in the wake of George Floyd. How the state and local government viewpoint is being re-shaped and how finally a certification may be worth its salt. I truly was encouraged by this interview having seen for 2 dozen years companies skirt the rules and get waivers to comply with small business goals. Meeting Brian gave me hope that finally there may truly be value in DBE and other certifications other than helping the government receive more funding dollars. Let's welcome Brian Salvidge on the Govcon Giants podcast.

This episode digs into how to reduce complexity and choose the right path through a mental model we call the river. You identify the dams that stop your customer and break them down, focusing on just them to bring focused, explainable, shareable value. Plus, the papaya.

However, it may be difficult to determine what is possible and what is not, because building on a cloud service can lead to unforeseen difficulties that require a more complex solution.   In this episode, we speak with Ala and Aaron from Klotho about how complexity cannot be avoided as well as how operations teams are on the rise.   Ala's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/alashiban LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alashiban/   Aaron's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/aarontorres LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/torresaaron/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

Burnout and fatigue show up in many different ways. Stephen is feeling the strain this week as he asks to process burnout in the midst of it himself. We talk about the expectations placed on clergy and volunteers in ministry, the value of negative space to inspire action, motivation in dry seasons, and the slow work of healing with remedies that are more than a bandaid on the mind and spirit.***ANNOUNCEMENT*** Send in your Episode 100 submissions via email at theravelpod@gmail.com to be a part of the triple digit celebration!Mentioned in the episode: About 41 Bears Matthew 11 Join our Patreon community at patreon.com/ravelpod for as little as $3/mo!

Last year, GBTA released our flagship report—the Business Travel Index or BTI—in partnership with HRS. The BTI estimates business travel spend around the world and forecasts spending five years into the future. With a new BTI set for release at the GBTA Convention in August 2022, and a VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity) world that brought some more unforeseeable events that happened since, we wanted to reflect back on last year's release and examine where the industry stands today and discuss some of the key trends and issues that will likely drive the updated forecast. Join Tatila Downing, Vice President of Pay & Stay for HRS and Chris Ely, research director for GBTA for an insightful podcast discussion on business travel spend, sustainability, pricing, staffing, and recovery in North America and around the globe. Hear more about the new paradigm in corporate travel in terms of how we work today and how we pay. In addition, learn how data and metrics can be used to help travelers and procurement departments make better decisions.

NonTrivial is of course free for all listeners, but I do offer bonus content to my Patreon subscribers. I'm publishing this week's bonus talk for free so regular listeners can get a taste of what this additional content sounds like. Enjoy.Given today's networked economy, with its extreme wealth disparity, many wonder how they can contribute. How does one not get discouraged by the concentration of wealth? What can you do to exist within this kind of asymmetric economy and still find meaning and make a good living? The usual solution offered by many is where people on YouTube and other social media sites say they can teach you how to make money online, or generate a ton of followers. I argue that these kind of methods are more akin to “get rich quick schemes” because they fail to acknowledge that asymmetric network properties guarantee that only a few nodes will have the overwhelming number of links, and therefore wealth. I argue that rather than following someone else's so-called recipe for success you should learn to create and scale value for others by focusing on building things you find fascinating. By doing so you can attract a decent number of links to your node, creating real value for others and enriching your own life, all the while operating within an asymmetric, rich get richer network.Support the show

This week we discuss complexity. The fact that it is increasing in life. And that there are two types: Baked In and Self Generated Complexity. Join us as we self diagnose and move toward simplicity.

I'm back with another history lesson, and today I devote the entire episode to Alan Turing. His brilliant mind helped outsmart the Nazis during World War II and his developments in computer science paved the way for every electronic device that we use today. Sadly, Alan's life took a devastating turn when he was publicly outed and persecuted for being gay.

Many argue that the internet has destroyed more jobs than it's created, and that as such our information economy has obliterated the middle class. The common “solution” proposed for this problem is to create systems that pay users for their data. If you join Twitter or Facebook (Meta) then you should somehow be compensated since it's your data that make these companies successful. This is the argument Jaron Lanier makes in his book Who Owns the Future. I will argue that compensating users for data is a non-solution because of the way networks convert user data into product features. I will argue that rather than compensate users for their data it makes more sense to change the network topology such that more people can create lucrative enterprises under the current model.Support the show

0:00 - Logical Fallacy: Appeal to Complexity; Drink of the Day: Cirtus Green Tea 2:58 - Meat Segment: What is the role of the Holy Spirit? What is Stephen's Funky Pneumatology? Does he interact with us primarily on the individual level or on the corporate level? It seems that much of what we like to think is individualized our experience of the Holy Spirit is actually corporate in nature. Your body is not a temple of the Spirit... YALL'S bodY is. And what about the Conscience?  39:11 - Logical Fallacies: Mary Gay Scanlon attempts to dismantle the anti-abortion movement by assuming that the anti-abortion movement is already dismantled. Hilarity would ensue if it weren't for the fact that this person is literally a representative in Congress.  1:14:53 - Old Man Joe: America is evidently a nation that can be defined in a single word, and if you can understand what that one word is, then I doth my cap to you.  1:16:31 - Three Favorite News Stories: First on the docket, BMW releases features via a subscription service, and I'm not really mad about it. Second, ISOM passes $3,000,000 raised and I give Eric July mad props for it. He's actually doing something about the problem he sees.

Autarkh III is a mind blowing collective of musicians that are pushing metal far beyond its boundaries. This week, July 23 to be exact, the band will be performing at Complexity Fest 2022 located at Patronaat in Haarlem, Netherlands. And on this same date will be offering a special vinyl version of Roadburn Redux 2021, which we covered as our Album of the Month when it was digitally released back in April. If you'll remember, this album is an alternative timeline to their debut Form In Motion and in a different musical context so, the words ‘pushing beyond boundaries' takes on new and exciting meaning. Just ahead of their performance and vinyl release, Anton and Buke sat down with the band for a wide ranging discussion surrounding these events.

HT1231 - With Complexity Comes Forgetfulness The more complicated our cameras become, the more capable they are of providing specialty solutions, the easier it is for us to forget how to run the camera in between photographic sessions. If you use your camera every day, this may not be such an issue. If, on the other hand, there are sometimes weeks that go by without using the camera, it will become more important to have access to your instruction manual.

Ask any martial artist: It's not just where a person strikes you but your stance that matters. The amplitude and angle of a blow is one thing but how you can absorb and/or deflect it makes the difference. The same is true in any evolutionary system. Most people seem to know “the butterfly effect” where tiny changes lead to large results, but the inverse also works: complex organisms buffer their development against adverse mutations so that tiny changes cannot redirect the growth of limbs and other organs. It takes a lot to shake the pattern of five fingers on a hand, or five toes on a paw. This is robustness: how much change can something soak up before it transforms? The question leads us into a secret garden of cryptic variation: mutations waiting for their moment, pieces sitting in place that might suddenly and radically metamorphose in changing circumstances. It's why evolution stutters, halts and leaps, and maybe it can help us think about society and mind in ways that deepen comprehension of the tangled and surprising forces playing out at all scales, in society and in ecology. For quests as deep as these, we need to wear new lenses and train inquiries stereoscopically. How can and do the sciences and the humanities inform each other as we keep evolving — not just biologically, but culturally? Can we triangulate the truth by holding theories side by side and looking through them all together?Welcome to COMPLEXITY, the official podcast of the Santa Fe Institute.

Robert Trivers is an American evolutionary biologist and sociobiologist. He proposed the theory of Reciprocal Altruism, in a paper that he published in 1971, linked below. Trivers was awarded the 2007 Crafoord Prize in Biosciences for analysis and contributions to the theory of social evolution, conflict, and cooperation. In this episode, Robert Trivers and I talk about reciprocal altruism, deception and self-deception as adaptive strategies, genuine victims and reducing vulnerability, and much more. —Links— Read Robert Trivers' Paper: https://roberttrivers.com/Publications_files/Trivers%201971.pdf Read Robert Trivers' books: https://roberttrivers.com/Books.html Read Robert Trivers' Other Publications: https://roberttrivers.com/Publications.html Follow Robert Trivers on Twitter: https://twitter.com/triversrobert —Chapters— [0:00] Intro [1:50] Reciprocal Altruism [9:41] Why Focus On Morality Issues?

In this conversation based on his new book, The Romance of Reality, cognitive neuroscientist Bobby Azarian explains how for centuries the question Why do we exist? was the sole province of religion and philosophy. According to the prevailing scientific paradigm, the universe tends toward randomness; it functions according to laws without purpose, and the emergence of life is an accident devoid of meaning. But Azarian argues that out of complexity science and the phenomenon known as emergence, a new cosmic narrative is taking shape: Nature's simplest “parts” come together to form ever-greater “wholes” in a process that has no end in sight, and that life is moving toward increasing complexity and awareness. Carl Sagan was right when he said of humanity that “we are a way for the cosmos to know itself.” Shermer and Azarian discuss: laws of thermodynamics and directionality • how complexity formed after the Big Bang • laws of nature: discovered or created or both? • Stephen Jay Gould and contingency vs. necessitating laws of nature • convergent evolution and directionality in evolution • the left wall of simplicity • leading theories for the origin of life • complexity theory and emergence • consciousness, the self, and other minds • free will, determinism, compatibilism, panpsychism • Is there purpose in the cosmos? Bobby Azarian is a cognitive neuroscientist (PhD, George Mason University) and a science journalist. He has written 100+ articles — many reaching millions of views — about science, technology, and philosophy for publications including The Atlantic, New York Times, BBC Future, Scientific American, Slate, Huffington Post, Quartz, Daily Beast, Aeon, among others. Azarian has authored numerous academic papers, published in peer-reviewed journals such as Human Brain Mapping, Cognition & Emotion, and Acta Psychologica. His blog “Mind in the Machine,” hosted by Psychology Today, has received over 8 million views. Azarian worked with The Atlantic and Huffington Post to create viral videos, which he helped write the scripts for and narrated.
